This week went down a lot like my last couple of weeks: nothing great, nothing terrible. Running was hard this week. Some weeks are just like that. Whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right? A lot of my friends were racing this weekend, but I couldn't. I'm joining up with the Weekly Wrap from Holly … Continue reading Horses, Hills & Snakes, Oh My!: 4/10- 16 Weekly Wrap

Burning up the trails: 4/3- 9 Weekly Wrap
In some ways, this week was a repeat of last week: nothing particularly exciting going on, another trip to my parents -- which I thought would be the last one, except it took much longer than I expected and I think there's more left to do than my sister realizes. Still a bit back and … Continue reading Burning up the trails: 4/3- 9 Weekly Wrap
Spring Blizzard Stella: 3/13-19 Weekly Wrap
You'll notice, probably, that there wasn't as much activity as normal. Not a lot of dog walking. Not much cross training. Not as much strength work. Yes, a lot of that was due to the blizzard, because when I wasn't running on the treadmill, I was shoveling. Maybe Stella came along at a good time … Continue reading Spring Blizzard Stella: 3/13-19 Weekly Wrap
Roaring in: 3/6-12 Weekly Wrap
Indeed Well, March is certainly marching in with plenty of wind (apparently there isn't much truth to the whole in like a lion, out like a lamb rhyme, according to this article from farmer's almanac). If my half is windy, I'll be well prepared. What I won't be prepared for is the heat. Because snow … Continue reading Roaring in: 3/6-12 Weekly Wrap
What goes around . . .: 2/28-3/5 Weekly Wrap
. . . Comes around I'll get to the title in the Favorites of the Week. Nothing super exciting about this week, again, other than the fact that I survived the workouts Rachel @ Runningonhappy cooked up for me and had a real confidence building long run. I'm joining up with the Weekly Wrap from Holly … Continue reading What goes around . . .: 2/28-3/5 Weekly Wrap
Respecting my body:10/24-30 Weekly Wrap
I'm not sure if it was just things catching up with me, the travel, the stress, or all of the above, but I felt a little off for most of the week. Nothing serious, pretty sure I'm not really coming down with anything, just my body telling me it's time to respect it a bit … Continue reading Respecting my body:10/24-30 Weekly Wrap
Celebrating the Big 9-0: 3/21-27 Weekly Wrap
Last year, quite frankly, we were not sure my Dad would make it to 89. Last Friday he celebrated his 90th birthday. My parents were the babies of their families by quite a few years; I am the baby of mine, also by quite a few years. The upside to that is that I come … Continue reading Celebrating the Big 9-0: 3/21-27 Weekly Wrap
Running 9 miles allows me to eat anything?: 3/14-20 Weekly Wrap
NOT!!! It was a fairly quiet week. I wasn't feeling well, but I got in all my runs. Just easy runs, recovery after last week's race. No hill repeats, no speedwork, unless you call a few miles at race pace during my long run speedwork. Don't forget to let us know how your week went … Continue reading Running 9 miles allows me to eat anything?: 3/14-20 Weekly Wrap
